Trash to Treasures

Hubby and I went to an estate sale early Friday morning.  It was at a great old house in Blaine and the family was so nice and very organized.  In fact, everything was so nice that we decided they had thrown away the trash.  Probably the trash that was treasures.
We did find a pretty lamp for $5 and some free vintage Christmas lights so we did alright.
As we paid for our treasures, the gentleman told me that they had thrown the lamp in the garbage and then decided to try and sell it. So they pulled it out of the dumpster.
I'm thinking that dumpster was full of treasures.
So it goes.
